I agree on this, CJ, I don't like OCC either. But those pedals look quite good._________________"The object of war is not to die for your country, but to make the other bastard die for his."

Because, as the home page says, they do extreme engineering? I am not a yankee and I like OCC (waits for the general "eeeewwwwww"). Why? Simple: it takes brains and guts to do custom stuff. Isn't everyone tired of anonymous mass-produced stuff that's designed to break after a certain amount of time?_________________diginferno

This. Digi is the only intelleigent person here. Cuz shes a woman and women arent stupid like men, or Pesa and CJ (LOLOLOLOL)

OCC makes custom bikes from nothing and so does trick... the only problems is the pedals are about $600 each and the dbl kick pedal are about $1200. WICKED EXPENSIVE

Quality comes with a price, but at least you know what you're paying for._________________diginferno

Thank you, digi. Your explanation is logical (thus makes sense) although it does not matches CJ's anger on those guys.

Would them have made something to Brad?_________________I think I think, therefore I think I am. (Ambrose Bierce)

Trick Drums in general make some pretty sick hardware. If only I weren't broke...
I use an Axis A2 on my kit, about $500, still fast and responsive as hell.

So a quick question to all the drummers here, are there really big differences concerning the drum pedals? I'm just asking because our drummer is still using a pretty basic pedal AFAIK. Maybe he could get more drive with a better pedal although he is very good with the one he is using at the moment.

And as a second question, do you prefer playing a double-pedal for faster bass-drum playing or do you prefer having two bassdrums with a single pedal for each?_________________o

The thing with these pedals is there is a Linkage instead of a chaing with a roller for torque. I for one have not tried them, but afaik the linkage results in no lag and quicker response.

The tension spring in the Axis pedals are supposedly the strogest you can get anywhere on any pedal. And another thing they have going for that pedal is the longboard... it gives you much more area to work with and use according to the torqe and pivot on the pedal.
Yes another thing for the Axis is they are extremly adjustable, which is why very fast drummer (Gerogle Kollias, Derek Roddy, Pete Sadnval, and Flo Mounier) use them.

Trick is the same way more of less but i have never seen one close for study. And they have a coil spring with it somthing i ahve really read up on either.

For the aspect of drumming with dbl pedals compared to 2 single the singe is probably the best. Because no matter how much of an awesome pedal you have there will still be a slight lag and less of a respons from the slave pedal. Again another reason why the speedy drummers use 2 bass drums with 2 independent pedals.

Final thought. Yes those expensive pedals are alot better... but for $600 or more for a pair get a nice set of Iron Cobra or Pearl Eliminator's. 2 bass drums with 2 independent pedals will always be better then a dbl kick pedal.
